LO-My Inspiration

A digital design project that I enjoyed was Yuri Suzuki’s AR Music Kit project. This project was an Android phone application created in partnership with the Google Data Arts Team that essentially allowed users to create their own musical instruments. What I admired most about this project was its interactiveness and how usable it was (the demonstration video shows that children can even use it!) These aspects piqued my interest since I loved how it allowed for something rather complicated to be turned into something that is easy to use for all (with an Android, of course). This project was created by Suzuki with a team of 7 that was divided into designers and programmers. From what is given, I believe that to create this project, custom software had to be developed since it required developing the AR to recognize the music codes to produce their respective sounds. This project might have been inspired by the general growing popularity of DIYs and how almost everything now can be easily done through a smartphone. I think this project can lead to much more development on digital DIYs and provide more accessibility to a plethora of things that weren’t easily accessible before.
